Sensex rose by 0.30% or 139 points to 46099. The Nifty surged by 0.26% or 13514. The market breadth is in favour of advances with an advance-decline ratio of 3:2.

The Nifty continued with its winning streak for the sixth straight week. On December 11, the index swung sharply in both directions. The hourly chart shows that the index is nicely trading in a rising channel. On the higher side, the Nifty stumbled near the upper channel line but the selling was absorbed near the lower end of the channel. The lower channel line coincided with the 40-hour exponential moving average & the hourly lower Bollinger Band near 13400. The bulls rushed in near these parameters and pushed the index back in the green. So the level of 13400 proved to be a key support for the second consecutive day and will continue to provide a cushion going ahead. On the higher side, the short-term target remains at 13700.
